A showcase of EmComm vehicles and strategies from across the nation

From across the country EmComm vehicles will gather this year at Hamvention to showcase Amateur Radio Emergency Communications and Community Services.

There are many groups that are thinking about building units and would get beneficial ideas from displayed units. Please consider to have units fully manned, functional and demonstrate its capabilities throughout the show.
